Itinerary: | |||||||
We will be starting from the Glennfield entrance
parking lot.
Heading west on the paved trails, we'll stick to the north side of the creek this time, missing the black diamond downhill on the south side. The first 20 minutes is pretty flat and fast then we start climbing in the trees. Expect technical sections, lots of roots, several 5 to 10 minutes climbs but nothing too extreme. We'll be making the odd stop after climbs and a snack break about the half way point at Bridge #1. *Please be advised that you must stay with the group. Fish Creek Park Single Track Trail Map This will be a relatively fast pace ride with a few drops and off camber sections, riders are expected to have some Mountain Bike experience and a good fitness level. The elevation gain for this ride is around 800 to 1200 ft over approximately 2.5 hours, 16km to 18km range overall. This ride is less difficult than the normal route we take but still a great workout. Calling for + temperatures, come have some FUN! | |||||||
